Baseball!

Monday night was Dayton's first T-Ball/Baseball practice. He had so much fun. He loves it. He hit really well and they played chase the coaches to learn the bases. He has another practice on Saturday, and will practice M & Sat. until the season starts. Then he will have games on Saturday. His team is the Ola Bulldogs, like Mrs. Amy's dog he always says. Amy has a bulldog. He got to pick his number on Monday, he choose 01, like the General Lee from Dukes of Hazzard. It is so cute to watch the little kids play, they are all so tiny. But they are going to be a great team, they all play and work well together. Here are a few pictures from his first practice.

Waiting for his turn at bat. He is looking at the camera and has a yellow sleeve.

Using the T this time.

4-Wheel Parts Show

This last weekend we took the boys to the 4-Wheel Parts show at Cobb Galleria. We have gone to the one in Denver for the last few years. The boys LOVE it! They love seeing the big Monster trucks, and collecting all the stickers. This one had a bounce house with slide, that was the hit. Cohen really didn't want his picture taken that day, so most of them are of Dayton.

New additions!!

Our newest additions!! Not the best pictures but the best I could get. Max and Ruby are Chihuahua/Dachshund mixes. We rescued them from the pound. They were taken there at about 6-7 weeks old. On Tuesday they will be 11 weeks. They are very playful, and the boys love it. They help feed them, and go out with me to take them potty. We are still working on housebreaking them, but they are doing pretty good with it. I think about 75% of the time they go to the door to let us know they need to go out. They were both 6lbs when we got them, tomorrow it will be 2 weeks. I really don't think they will get to much bigger since they are such small breed dogs. They fight like normal brothers and sisters, all the time!! You can give each of them the exact same thing and they will fight the other one for the one they have. Usually this is started by Max. They do love to sleep cuddled up to each other. I think it is funny that they each have a personality of one of the boys. But they sure are some funny puppies. The boys love them so much!! So do we!







This is MAX. He is the quiet instigator, kind of like Dayton. We thought he was gonna be the lover, he kind of is, but really likes his independence! He loves to give kisses, especially to Hillman!! Max is more doxie looking with his markings, his ears are just plain silly. They don't really go up or lay down, they are somewhere in the middle.




































This is RUBY! She is the fighter and cuddler,just like Cohen! She loves to just pounce on Max for no apparent reason! She does not like when I hold him, she will try to get up in my lap and bark at him. She is very jealous too! She is really the lover, she wants to get in your lap most of the time! When she does she just wants to be rubbed, especially her belly! Ruby has more of the Chihuahua look and markings. Thank goodness she doesn't have the stick up ears!!

Dayton's first day of school!!!!

Dayton's first day of school was GREAT!! Well for the most part. He wouldn't let me take pictures of him, so what ones we do have he is trying to get away from the camera.

































Dayton trying to hide!!


















































This is Dayton's new backpack!! He picked it out and is so excited because it is CAMO, and so was his first day outfit!!






















This is the new school. This is Locust Grove Academy where he goes from 745-about 1115. This is the GA Pre-K, he would go here all day but goes to his other school in the afternoon for speech. His teacher here is Tamu Broderick and his para is Mrs Melody. He loves going, they are going to do a field trip once a month, this month it is to the library. He will get to stay here all day those days, so he doesn't have to miss out on the trips. I think next month is Zoo Atlanta, and they are trying to get the Aquarium too. He is really excited about the field trips. He has 20 kids in his class. He gets to have breakfast here every morning. He is REALLY liking that too, Mrs. Tamu says they don't have to ask him to try anything, he does it on his own. YAYAYA!! He would get lunch and a snack too, but he leaves before that.





In the back of this picture is his playground! He wanted a picture of it. There is a basketball hoop that he loves. It is a REAL hoop he says just down for the kids his size.



















His school bus picks him up about 1115 and takes him to Unity Grove Elementary where he went in the spring. He REALLY loves it there, especially Mrs. Amy. She is the same teacher he had in the spring, along with Mrs. Laura, and Mrs. Lynn and Mrs. Misty are his para's. He has lunch here and does normal school things. In class this year they have 2 dwarf hamsters named Bo and Luke after the Duke Boys, we all know how much he LOVES the Duke Boys!! He also has the same bus driver as the spring. So that makes a world of difference to him. I will get pictures of the school and teachers at UGE when Cohen starts in September. He will have the same teacher as Dayton but in the morning.



As Dayton says "Mommy I LOVE school!!"
